Art by Akira Toriyama Japanese ゆきのじょおう Romaji Yuki no joō First appearance Dragon Quest V: Hand of the Heavenly Bride Old localization None

The Winter Queen is the second boss fought in Dragon Quest V, and is the one responsible for postponing the coming of spring by duping Dwight into stealing a precious artifact from Faerie Lea.

She has gone on to make appearances in spinoff games in the series.

Characteristics

Appearance-wise, the Winter Queen is a Blizzybody, but with dull grey skin instead of blue and purple eyes. The blue flames she wields and the one on her head are a lighter shade of blue, as well. In the Sony PlayStation 2 version of V, the queen has been given a more feminine appearance, wearing a dress with high heels in place of the Roman armor. She also wears a tiara and a necklace decorated with blue gemstones. In her appearance in Walk and Keshi Keshi, her dress has been given a more elaborate appearance, her tiara is now decorated with a snowflake, and she wears rings on all of her fingers.

Aside from her icy attacks, the Winter Queen will often take a deep breath before using Cool Breath.
